    Smart plans (if you are on one) are extremely expensive at peak times. They only come into their own if you can use a lot on off peak in the early hours of the morning. You'd need to be charging an EV to really make it worth while I think

    If your heating is regular electric rather than heat pump then I don't think it's that high (depending on how much you had the heating on)

    Smart plan crucified us. Bills went from an already expensive €500 for 2 months to nearly €1000 for 2 months for less total units used.
